Parameters

an optional pointer to an nvlist_t that will be used to store specific errors (if any) when validating global properties

Description

The it_config_load() function allocates and creates an it_config_t structure representing the current
iSCSI configuration. This structure is compiled using the “provider” data returned by
stmfGetProviderData(3STMF). If there is no provider data associated with iscsit, the it_config_t
structure is set to a default configuration.

The it_config_commit() function informs the iscsit service that the configuration has changed
and commits the new configuration to the persistent store by calling stmfSetProviderData(3STMF).
This function can be called multiple times during a configuration sequence, if
necessary.

The it_config_setprop() function validates the provided property list and sets the global
properties for iSCSI Target. If errlist is not NULL, this function returns
detailed errors for each property that failed. The format for errorlist is key
= property, value = error string.

The it_config_free() function frees resources associated with the it_config_t structure.

Global nvlist properties are as follows:

auth

string

radius, chap, or none

isns

boolean

B_TRUE,
B_FALSE

isnsserver

string array

Array of portal specifications of the form IPaddress:port. Port is
optional; if not specified, the default iSNS port number of 3205 will
be used. IPv6 addresses should be enclosed in square brackets '['
']'. If “none” is specified, all defined iSNS servers will be
removed from the configuration.

characters but not more than 255 characters. secret will be base64
encoded when stored.

Return Values

The it_config_load(), it_config_commit(), and it_config_setprop() functions return 0 on success and an
error value on failure.

Errors
